    .YES there was early and late carrier bearing
    1966 late and through to 1970 had all the same larger driver side carrier bearing and race. (25590 and 25523 ) x1 (LM603049 and LM603012 ) x1
    The early carrier version had the same size 3.062 saddle diameter bearing (LM603049 and LM603012 ) x2

    Thank you Jim

    John, thanks for posting the bulletin info. First I'd seen it after hearing about it for years. Saved for future reference.

    this was quoted from a pm i had with a member here in my in box yesterday...

    'I assume we are talking about the Buick 9 3/8" rear 10 bolt cover 12 bolt ring and 30 spline bolt in axle rear? Yes?
    If yes...YES there was early and late carrier bearing
    1966 late and through to 1970 had all the same larger driver side carrier bearing and race. (25590 and 25523 ) x1 (LM603049 and LM603012 ) x1
    The early carrier version had the same size 3.062 saddle diameter bearing (LM603049 and LM603012 ) x2'
    so if you have a same bearing carrier 1966 early it will only fit early 1966 case.
    it will not fit 1966 late or 1967 -1970 9 3/8" case.
    hope that helps.
    same thing backwards you can not fir the different size carrier bearing carrier into a early 66 housing.
